dal:um is a Korean music ensemble formed with two members performing Korea’s most well-known string instruments, Gayaguem (Su Yean Ha) and Geomungo (Hye Young Hwang).

dal:um did their debut in 2018. Since then, they challenged the possibility of traditional sounds of these instruments.

They experimented by freely reforming and modernizing their instruments’ sounds in their own ways.

Hye Young Hwang (Geomungo)

Similar but different two instruments, the concert where you can meet the unlimited potential of Gayaguem and Goemungo in between the silence of emptiness and the explosive energy. (30 mins./ 5 pieces)
